Also if you have never climbed sport before, here are a few tips to make it more fun.
- fall
- have a go at routes that are a grade or two too hard for you
- fall
- seriously, don't be scared to take a fall
- in fact if you are having trouble, get on a steep overhanging route an practice
- have a go
If you sport climb with a trad mentality you will forever think its boring shit and pointless, and won't remember a single route you did. You gotta take falls and push yourself.
Note: taking falls on a slab is recommended by noone. Take falls on things that are at least vertical, though preferably overhanging
